If you need more, one of the older students competent in charm work can use the duplicating charm. You'll also need about 5-10 medium sized stones. And water, which you could use your wands for or get from the lake..." the latter was what he had to do.

"Lay your stones carefully around the edge of the bowl and then fill up the middle with water." Thereos glanced around to make sure they understood. "If you wish, you may also do this on the ground, with no bowl, but you'll need to stack the stones higher to add more water, so it doesn't all seep into the ground."

Corey went ahead and grabbed a bowl, not wanting to be one of the kids who had to sort out duplicating one. Medium sized stones and filling the bowl with water? Right, he was on it. He went off to the lake with his bowl and filled it, then returned to the main group and found a spot to sit at, stones now in his pockets. There were a bunch right by the lake shore after all.

He lay the stones out and spent some time adjusting them and thinking about food.
